ELIZABETH ANN SETON SCHOLA CANTORUM Do you want your children to become lifelong servants of the Church? Singing in a children’s choir is a great way to help that. The St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Schola Cantorum is currently accepting children Grades 4-12 for its after-school choir program. The choir is responsible for enriching the Mass on 10:30 on Sundays and rehearses every Wednesday from 3:45-5 PM. Unique in the area, the choir focuses on singing music from the rich Catholic tradition, including chant and polyphony, as well as the finest modern church music. Time is devoted to building the children’s skills of music reading, vocal technique, thinking about the words and the structure and meaning of the Mass. Service hours are available for older students. For more information, please contact Dr. Douglas O’Neill at doneill@seascs.org.
